It's a group started in '71, I believe by about 47 "Catholic" nuns. They go around raising consciousness and power-lobbying the politicians before any major vote on "social justice" issues.

I was chiding her on the extreme amount of pandering to the young unmarried women with babies. We constantly have giving trees at our church and they get enough stuff to have five kids. This sounds uncharitable, I know, but how about some hand me downs? I object only that it seems an undignified celebration of illegitimate birth and no stigma attaches. Stigma has an important place, or had. She said: "for those we work with who choose to have their babies," or some such statement which was ambiguous at the least. V's wife.
